Man's raised voice in loyal toast (4)
I believe the answer is:
alto
'man's raised voice' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'in loyal toast' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ALTO' can be found hidden inside 'loyal toast'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alto that I've seen before include "Kind of singing voice, male or female" , "Highest male voice: lowest female voice" , "One who sings" , "Second of four parts (in singing)" , "Voice part" .)
